Kimberly A. Novick

In 2002, Novick earned her bachelor's degree in Civil and Environmental Engineering from Duke University.{{Cite web|url=https://dukespace.lib.duke.edu/dspace/bitstream/handle/10161/2847/2002%20commencement.pdf?sequence=5&isAllowed=y|title=Duke University Graduation Exercises|last=|first=|date=2002|website=|archive-url=|archive-date=|access-date=2019-09-13}} When Novick graduated, she was one of two students who graduated with departmental distinction in the department of Civil and Environmental Engineering.{{Cite web|url=https://cee.duke.edu/undergrad/students/graduation-distinction|title=Graduation with Departmental Distinction|date=2010-12-20|website=Duke Civil and Environmental Engineering|access-date=2019-09-13}} In 2002, Novick was also presented with the William Brewster Snow Award, which is given to students who have not only shown academic success, but also a strong passion for environmental engineering.{{Cite web|url=https://cee.duke.edu/about/awards-honors/william-brewster-snow-award|title=William Brewster Snow Award|date=2011-06-27|website=Duke Civil and Environmental Engineering|access-date=2019-09-13}} During the same year, Novick also received the Eric I. Pas Award, which is awarded to students with the most impressive research project. Her research included working in the Duke Forest on "Assessing the Effects of Elevated Atmospheric CO₂ and LAI Perturbations on Southeastern Grassland Water Vapor and CO₂ Fluxes."{{Cite web|url=https://cee.duke.edu/about/awards-honors/eric-pas-award|title=Eric I. Pas Award|date=2011-06-27|website=Duke Civil and Environmental Engineering|access-date=2019-09-13}}

In pursuit to obtain her Ph.D., Novick went back to Duke University and graduated in 2010{{Cite web|url=https://commencement.duke.edu/wp-content/uploads/2018/01/2011-commencement-program.pdf|title=Duke University Commencement|last=|first=|date=2011|website=|archive-url=|archive-date=|access-date=}} and continued her research at the Duke Forest to study forest carbon and water cycling.{{Cite web|url=https://spea.indiana.edu/faculty-research/directory/profiles/faculty/full-time/novick-kimberly.html|title=Kimberly Novick|website=O'Neill School of Public and Environmental Affairs|access-date=2019-09-13}}

After graduating from Duke, Novick has been working as an environmental scientist. She first worked with the United States department of Agriculture (USDA) Forest Services. Novick conducted research at the Coweeta Hydrological Laboratory in North Carolina, where she studied CO₂ and evapotranspiration in the ecosystem.{{Cite web|url=https://fluxnet.fluxdata.org/2016/03/08/interview-with-kim-novick/|title=[People] Kimberly Novick, Indiana University – Bloomington|date=2016-03-08|website=Fluxdata|access-date=2019-09-13}}{{Cite web|url=https://www.fs.fed.us/research/people/profile.php?alias=kimberlynovick|title=Kimberly Novick – People - US Forest Service Research & Development|website=www.fs.fed.us|access-date=2019-09-14}}

Since 2012, Novick has been at the Indiana University, Bloomington. She is a professor, and works at the O’Neill School of Public and Environmental Affairs. Novick now works with the Morgan-Monroe State Forest Flux Tower as well as the tower at Coweeta, both sites are part of the U.S. Department of Energy's AmeriFlux network, which measures CO_2, water, and energy changes in the ecosystems.{{Cite web|url=https://ameriflux.lbl.gov/about/about-ameriflux/|title=About the AmeriFlux Network|website=AmeriFlux|access-date=2019-09-13}} Currently, Novick runs the Morgan-Monroe site where she continues to research the interaction between the land and the atmosphere. Recently, her site has been also interested in studying the effects of a drought on the exchange of carbon in the ecosystem. They discovered that certain vegetation will change how they interact with carbon during a drought.

• In 2012, Novick received a USDA grant to continue research in the Southern Appalachian area to study water supply in the region.{{Cite web|url=https://www.srs.fs.usda.gov/compass/2012/01/10/coweeta-researchers-awarded-prestigious-usda-grant/|title=Prestigious USDA Grants Support SRS Research in the Southern Appalachians|last1=Hoyle|first1=Zoe|last2=Communications|first2=SRS Science|website=CompassLive|access-date=2019-09-13}}
